Overview
About Me
I was born and raised in Brazil, left to study in the UK in 2010, at 14, and now I'm go to university in England. I have recently (2016) spent from two months volunteering in Fiji and backpacking in Australia as well as Europe.
I love meeting people and sharing experiences, long conversations, politics talk, tea, coffee.
Friends describe me as a "50 year old stuck in a 20's body” which is quite the case.
(I'm not a verified account because it's expensive and I'm a broke student) :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
People are fascinating. I wanna see the world, but my eyes have seen enough of my own story, so I need others for me to see it through their eyes and understand their values and the world through their own terms so one day I may come to terms with my existence. Also meeting new people, new ideas, new ways of life and hopefully soon able to offer a helping hand to a traveller like me.
Interests
I'm most absolutely passionate about politics and history. Other than that I like hanging out with friends, long walks in the nature or in a city, art and music. I play the guitar, the drums and I write songs too.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Classical, rock, pop rock, acoustic. (Nirvana, Green Day, Taylor Swift and The Killers are favourites)
Movies: artistic, european, latin american or historical. Favourites would be Into the Wild, Blue Lagoon, Babette's Feast and Clockwork Orange.
Books: I like political, starting to get into Russian literature. Classics such as the works of philosophers mentioned above (history of madness, leviathan, etc). Favourite one is probably Dracula though.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Slept outdoors in the Sahara desert.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you portuguese (?). I love learning about others and different cultures. People are endlessly fascinating. I'd love to share my experiences travelling and living abroad with hosts and travellers. Stories and most things that don’t go as planned are the best days.
What I Can Share with Hosts
My previous travels and stories, cooking recipes, political or philosophical debates, some Portuguese and a comfy bed in Brazil if you ever travel there :) I can also make good coffee :D
